'Yogi must teach Shah how to improve law and order in Delhi': Kejriwal

AAP's Arvind Kejriwal accused BJP of vote-buying, urging voters to take gifts but choose their candidate wisely. BJP demands answers from Kejriwal on Delhi issues.
The article discusses a political spat between Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Kejriwal criticized the law and order situation in Delhi, suggesting that Yogi Adityanath, known for his stringent measures against crime in Uttar Pradesh, should teach Union Home Minister Amit Shah how to manage law and order in the national capital. This comment was made in the context of a recent robbery in Delhi, highlighting the perceived deterioration of security. Kejriwal's remarks were part of a broader critique of the central government's handling of Delhi's affairs, especially after the Delhi Services Bill was passed, which gives the central government more control over Delhi's bureaucracy. The article also touches on the political rivalry between AAP (Aam Aadmi Party) and BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party), with Kejriwal using this opportunity to question BJP's governance capabilities.
